Watching MSNBC right now: prescription drug users to require out of pocket for every purchase

Re: Watching MSNBC right now: prescription drug users to require out of pocket for every purchase

This only applies to those who can afford it.

The poor will still get free meds.

No, all prescription drugs. He made a point of emphasizing that.

To quote you first post.

The amount is based on social security number and level of aid.

So no not all people will pay.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31366547

So the more aid you get, the more you would pay, I think, I really don't know. However, I don't believe anyone would get away "scott free" anymore with them buckling down on co-pay requirements from everyone.

If you take prescription meds in the US you are essentially a beta tester anyway. Avoid that shit if you can. If not insist on time tested meds. They are cheaper anway so maybe your OOP would be less. Avoid the 'drug du jour' at all costs.

When I saw on TV what Obummer's aids did to Joe the Plumber for asking one honest American question, I got off the couch for and registered to vote against Obummer. It was the first time I voted since Regan's first term 36 years.

I voted for him the first time, not the second you monthly check hoarder.

you didn't recognize what he was the first time around? were you dazzled by his skin color or by the idea of "change"? did you ever once ask yourself what kind of "change"? did it ever occur to you to research his past and those who had the most influence on his ideology?

Yea, amongst the duties of being a soldier, 2 weeks in the field, 2 weeks out of the field (prior to deployment) ad nauseum or how about the fact I listened to 4 of his speeches from fox news web app and had to make a decision then and there...we were told we have 1 month to cast our over seas ballot.

If you have that kind of time on your hands no wonder you frequent GLP (no offense) lol.

My magic is both from Source and Soul. I love everything for what it is...a means to an end. I love the fact we are all puzzle pieces to a Grand Master Design.

Oh God, where art though? Why must our souls be shards, is it a dirty trick or lesson or a test?

With a socialistic system, the main goal would be to keep people well so they wouldn't need so damn much healthcare. Preventative meds and ones that really work would be developed and used.

I didnt' ask what your "main goal" would be.

I asked how you would motivate people to achieve it.

Quoting: Professor Xavier

Oh, well, I guess the same thing that motivates a trash collector to get up in the morning: a paycheck so he can feed himself, etc...

By the way, since this is a pro-gun site, the designer of the world's most popular gun, Kalashnikov, was paid tiny wages for his development. Many great inventions in all kinds of industries took place in Soviet Russia, for example...even without dishing out large paychecks to people.

And while I don't have much experience visiting doctors, the one I saw in Russia, for free when I lived there, spent more time with me than the over-paid docs in the USA...

Next?

Quoting: Unc Al 27607346

So, a paycheck. Paid by whom? And for what?

And I am shocked, SHOCKED, that you lived in Russia, you transparent, shallow collectivist pollyp.

Quoting: Professor Xavier

Sorry, but name-calling earns you little credibility. Would you like to defend what you think is a good healthcare system. And in that system, your doctors are paid how? by whom? and for what?

And here's a GLP-appropriate Bible verse (atheists may read, too):

God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong.
